The collieries were served by railways which linked to the Liverpool and Manchester Railway and the Warrington and Newton Railway.
The line ran for 4.5 miles (7.24 km) from a junction west of Newton-le-Willows with the L&MR at Newton Junction (now Earlestown) to the original Dallam Lane terminus in Warrington just north of the town centre, with a short south-western branch towards Bank Quay.
